Chapter 1953

"Yes, Miss, where are we going to dine?"

The loyal maid chief asked.

"In the pavilion in the back garden, it's just right for two people. Don't forget to bring the wine in the ice bucket. Now that the snow hasn't completely melted, it's not common to have such scenery on an evening in the Month of Rain Prayer."

She ordered this and asked Xia De again:

"Don't mind going outside to eat with me?"

"Of course I don't mind."

The two stood up, and the cat, as if afraid that Xia De would leave her behind, grabbed Xia De's hand and asked him to hold her.

"Speaking of which, besides going to see the Guardian of the Earth today, what else did you do? Since the Green Lake battle is over and the story of the Chosen One of Space has come to an end, you can't just stay at home old-fashionedly, let me... let me and Princess Lei Qianya come to find you?"

Walking to the door together, letting the maids clean up the dining table behind, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na asked again.

Xia De blinked, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered:

"What I did today... playing with butterflies."

Since there are new members at home, he will not hide it from other ladies. Let's see Miss Miss Jia Lin Na's reaction first, so that he can find an unawkward way to tell Luweiya, Princess Lei Qianya, and Dorothy later.

"Butterflies? You are so big, why are you still like a child and a cat."

The witch said casually, but realized that the tone of Xia De saying this sentence was not normal. Looking at his face carefully, she was stunned for a moment as if thinking of something, and then asked in surprise:

"Wait a minute, oh, my god. Xia De, the 'playing with butterflies' you mentioned, wouldn't it be what I understood?"

Although Xia De didn't speak, looking at his expression, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na confirmed this time that Xia De did mean that.

The witch does not comment on the relationship between Xia De and Grace and Helen. She does not think that relics and herself are the same kind, and does not even regard the Red Butterfly girls as human beings, so their becoming family members will not affect the relationship between her and Xia De.

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na cares about their power. The Duchess doesn't know the complete story of the Red Butterfly Twins, but she knows how terrifying these two teachers of Grandma Cassandra are.

Before the dark great witch of this generation, the contact between Grace and Helen and the Witch Council had always been quite frequent. If it weren't for the sisters having to concentrate on waiting for the 22-year cycle again and again, it is possible that the entire Witch Council of the Sixth Era would have had their shadows behind them.

After all, in order to maintain the ability to seal the Xikar Mountains, the mental state and sanity of the two sisters have always been far above the normal level of humanoid relics.

Therefore, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na is quite in awe of what Xia De did. This awe even carries some worry; after all, with a humanoid relic... this is something never heard of before.

When she was walking down the stairs with Xia De, walking out of the manor building, and heading to the back garden under the guidance of the maids, she also asked about Xia De's physical condition and whether he had been affected. Xia De also thought she was really concerned about him at first, but later the two talked more and more, and Xia De found that she was asking some detailed questions in an increasingly in-depth manner.

Looking at Miss Miss Jia Lin Na's expression again, it was clearly curiosity mixed with inquiry, and curiosity mixed with hidden boldness and shyness. When she finally involved the content of the inquiry in unspeakable details, Xia De stopped answering honestly:

"Hmm... are you really worried about me?"

"This is academic discussion. Although I know you have always been bold, I didn't expect you to even... dare to take action."

The restaurant in the garden still needs to be arranged, so Xia De invited the red-haired Duchess to take a walk in the garden with him, which counts as a walk in the sunset.

The two talked about many things with a cat, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na talked about the complicated work she had to face recently, and Xia De talked about his meeting with Miss Dannister.

"That 'Red Moon Witch' really thinks highly of you."

She looked at the sunset in the distance and talked to Xia De under the grape trellis:

"Even if it is almost completely confirmed that you are the God-Caller, there is no intention to expose you at all. I have heard about the librarian of your academy, she probably has a very complex view of you."

Saying this, she glanced at Xia De, and Xia De and Mia looked up curiously at the grape vines on the trellis. The maturity time of grapes is generally after July, and it is only May now, so it is still early and not mature.

Before dinner started, Xia De still mentioned Grace and Helen, and the new room added to No. 6 St. Theresa Square, and he needed to purchase furniture.

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na naturally took over the matter of purchasing room supplies for Xia De. She was quite interested in that kind of hidden attached space and told Xia De not to consider whether to repay her:

"I know what you are thinking just by looking at your expression. If you dare to mention it, don't think about entering my bedroom for the next month... half a month... a week... three days."

The appetizer plate had been taken down, the main course had just been presented, she tilted her head and looked at Xia De sitting opposite her, and picked up the wine glass:

"Such a life is more interesting. I don't know how long this peace can last. After dinner, let's go together..."

The maid who ran over from the front of the courtyard interrupted her words. Difa took the letter from the maid and passed it to the owner of this manor.

The latter looked at the crest on the wax seal, frowned slightly, and then opened it. After reading the letter, she looked at Xia De very apologetically:

"I have to go into the city to handle some things at the Yodel Palace."

"Is it very urgent? Do you want to finish dinner first? Don't handle things on an empty stomach."

"It is indeed very urgent."

She shook her head slightly and looked at Xia De regretfully:

"It's not easy to have dinner with you, but I didn't expect it to be disturbed. After I leave, you don't leave. Wait for me to come back. I will definitely be back before eight o'clock. You absolutely don't leave."

"Please rest assured, I have nothing else to do today."

He picked up the cat, held the cat's paw and waved goodbye to the lady opposite, while Little Mia kept staring at the plates below; she was quite interested in the medium-rare Erlnok prairie veal steak.

"There will be time for dinner together in the future. Since the Green Lake matter is over, I can also be idle for a while."

"Yes, but it's really a waste tonight."

She said quite unhappily, but still ordered the maid to prepare clothing and a carriage for going out:

"I will leave Difa behind. I am going to see my nephew who doesn't worry, and I don't need her very much. You continue to have dinner here. After eating, you can do whatever you want in the manor, or discuss with Difa what furniture you need to prepare for your new room... Why don't you give me the crystal shoes? I am really worried that when I come back at night, there will be no male host waiting for me in the house."

Saying this, she also showed a weak expression, which of course was disguised.

As for the crystal shoes, although Xia De considered his reputation and desperately didn't want others to know, by the Battle of Green Lake, he had to explain his life-saving method clearly to prevent the girls from worrying.

In short, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na still left in the middle of dinner, making the romantic dinner in the sunset become Xia De alone.

There were quite a few maids left in the manor, including the black-haired maid chief, at least five people were standing outside the pavilion in the garden, which made Xia De even more embarrassed to continue eating.

Perhaps seeing Xia De's embarrassment, Difa took the initiative to propose returning to the restaurant. But this would require the maids to arrange the dining table again, and this manor does not have the rule of eating cold food, so these meals would be wasted, so Xia De stayed here and finished the meal with Little Mia.

During this period, although the chair opposite him was always empty, no girl had any covetousness for this position; after all, the maids were very loyal.

Missing one person made the atmosphere of the dinner lacking, but the craftsmanship of the manor chef is still worth praising. After dinner, it was almost completely dark. Xia De took Mia and Difa to the study of the manor to discuss what furniture was needed for the new room at home.

Xia De originally thought this was a small matter, but he didn't expect an hour to pass like this. During this period, Miss Miss Jia Lin Na, who had already arrived in the city, sent a letter to tell Xia De that she probably wouldn't be back at eight o'clock, but she would definitely be back before nine o'clock, and urged him absolutely not to leave.

"Miss Miss Jia Lin Na is really busy. Was it the same when you were in Saladir County?"

He asked, sitting on the sofa by the coffee table in the study, with a hand-drawn room decoration plan on the coffee table.

As for Difa, she insisted on not sitting on the sofa just now, and even when discussing the picture on the table with Xia De, she just bent over beside him, or lifted the hem of the cumbersome maid skirt and knelt on one knee.

She didn't mind any intimacy with Xia De, but she refused to cross the rights belonging to Miss Miss Jia Lin Na, always maintaining the elegance and decency of her maid chief.

"Life in Saladir County was much easier. Although the palace there was larger, the manpower was also more sufficient."

She said this, turned to look at the clock in the corner of the study, and then walked to the window and closed the curtains naturally.

Then she looked at the other two maids at the door, and they smiled and walked out together, and then closed the door from the outside.

Xia De watched the black-haired girl walk toward him and stop between the sofa and the coffee table.

The closing of the curtains and the door seemed to make the light of the gas lamp on the wall, which was shaped like a blooming rose and had crystal pendants hanging below, look even deeper. Although Xia De cannot predict, this naturally changing atmosphere still let him know what was going to happen in a while.
